Look Back
Echoes of Regret: Opal Skies' Emotional Tale in 'Look Back'
Lyrics
He can't see
He is unable to comprehend the reasons behind her loud screams.
Why she screams so loud
Despite not understanding, her happiness seems linked to his presence.
But she's so much happier
Her joy is more pronounced when he is with her.
When she has him around
There's a positive impact on her well-being when she is in his company.
And I know
The speaker is aware of the love he has for her.
That you love her
A recognition of his affection towards her.
And I know
Reiteration of the understanding of his feelings for her.
You can't take anymore
He is reaching a point where he can't handle the situation anymore.
And she doesn't know
She is unaware of the reasons for her feelings of isolation.
Why she feels so alone
A question about her emotional state of loneliness.
She could be so much more
She has the potential for personal growth if she escapes her current situation.
If she got out of this hole
Improvement is possible if she breaks free from her current difficulties.
And I know
The speaker is aware of his love for him.
That you love him
Recognition of affection towards him.
And I know
He acknowledges that he is negatively impacting him.
That you're dragging him down
There is a realization that he is bringing him down emotionally.
Will she give up or will she give herself another chance to make it right
A question about her future actions – whether she will give up or seek redemption.
Will she look back and wish she hadn't hurt him like she had you know she will
Anticipation of regret for hurting him, with a realization that such regret is inevitable.
Will he wish there was more he could've done to help her get out of her head
Contemplation on whether he will regret not doing more to help her overcome her struggles.
Will he wonder why he left it so long to tell her how he truly felt
Reflection on potential regrets for delaying the expression of true feelings towards her.
